Your fertility options as a single woman
Fertility treatment for single women often involves the use of donor sperm. The most suitable treatment option will depend on factors such as age, medical history and personal preferences.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
IUI involves placing donor sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation. This may be an option if you have regular ovulation and no known fertility concerns.
In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)
IVF involves fertilising an egg with donor sperm in the laboratory before transferring an embryo into the uterus. IVF may be recommended based on age, fertility history, or to increase the chances of pregnancy.
Your fertility specialist will work with you to recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for your circumstances.
